I mentioned earlier that my daughter, Gaubri, and I plan to go on a mission trip in March with a group from Faith Community Church so I wanted to share more details.

The trip will be 10 days and 9 nights in Chalchuapa, El Salvador, March 8-17th. We plan to have a vacation Bible school, do door-to-door evangelism, build a home for a church family that lost their home in a typhoon, and spend some time in a music ministry as we serve a church in Chalchuapa.

This is the timeline we were given in December:

TIMETABLE – This is a best estimate of the next 13 weeks:

Immediate – Passport secured DONE!

12/19/11 or before – Prayer / financial support letters out 1/2 DONE

01/11/12 – Team meeting after Wednesday service / El Salvador pics / Q & A LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS, MATT GRECO IS IN EL SALVADOR THIS WEEK SO HE WILL HAVE MORE INFO TO SHARE WITH US DURING THIS MEETING.

01/15/12 – $400 EACH deposit due – We’ll buy tickets after we have this deposit!

01/29/12 – Team meeting / covered dish dinner – Time and place TBA

02/12/12 – $500 EACH payment due

02/29/12 – Team meeting after Wednesday service

03/04/12 – $600 EACH (balance) payment due

03/07/12 – Wednesday Night dedication of El Salvador team

03/08/12 – Leave for El Salvador!

I am super excited for the opportunity to go and serve in El Salvador and be a part of this team. I am also so grateful for the chance to take Gaubri to experience another culture and expand her view of the world, I think she will come back with a much better appreciation of how very blessed she is.

Please pray for all of us as we prepare and if you feel led to contribute to the trip you can make donations through Faith Community Church.
